Daryl Hall and John Oates - So Close

They met on the dance floor in the old high school gym
He fell like a rock
She kinda liked him
And his heart beat like thunder as they moved cross the floor
But when the music was over she slipped out the door
Yeah a man loves a woman but he can`t understand
Why she`s sad when she stares at the ring on her hand
Then she sits in some club where the long shadows fall
Drops a coin in the jukebox not the phone on the wall

So close
Yet so far away
We believe in tomorrow and a better day
We lie down to sleep so close
Yet so far away

There`s a restless look in you eye tonight
There`s a secret hurt in my heart
And the dream that pulls us together girl
Is a dream that keeps us
So close
Yet so far away

Some people think if you really believe
That`s all you need to solve all the mysteries
Well I know someone who just heads for the sun
She says "I don`t want to be wise, I just want to stay young"

There`s a restless look in your eye tonight
There`s a secret hurt in my heart
And the dream that pulls us together girl is a dream
That`s gonna tear us apart
